Season 26 of *The Voice* kicked off with a bang, featuring an exciting new lineup of judges including musical icons like Snoop Dogg, Michael Bublé, Reba McEntire, and Gwen Stefani.

However, while the performance impressed many, Gwen Stefani found herself in the spotlight for an entirely different reason. Her outfit choice for the opening night stirred up quite a bit of controversy on social media. Though it’s an honor to join the ranks of *The Voice* coaches—following in the footsteps of legends like John Legend, Kelly Clarkson, Blake Shelton, and Adam Levine—criticism from viewers came swiftly.

Many fans took to social platforms to voice their opinions on Stefani’s look, with some feeling her outfit wasn’t appropriate for the occasion.

“Why does Gwen always miss the mark with her outfits? This show is for all ages—her choice is a bit much,” one viewer commented.

Another wrote, “Gwen is too old to be dressing like a teenager. She should take a cue from Reba and dress with class.”

Despite the criticism, others focused on the positives of the evening. “Snoop and Reba sounded amazing together. Gwen should’ve gone for something more elegant, but Michael is doing great,” a fan remarked.

As *The Voice* continues, it remains to be seen how the season will unfold, but it’s clear that this eclectic mix of judges is bound to bring plenty of drama and excitement. What did you think of Gwen’s outfit and the season premiere? Let us know in the comments!
